And, in no particular order, here are my eleven blog nominations for the Liebster Award!

This Country, rootin’ tootin’ themed mini matchbook album set is encased in an altered cedar sachet box with a satin ribbon pull. The albums all have pull out patterned paper for placing small photographs and are hand stamped on the back for journaling. Each matchbook album measures 2.5″ x2.75″ and the box measures 8.5″x3″. I’m sold on hot glue now! I was so hesitant but… nothing works better on fabric/ribbon/lace.

So, my nephew’s birthday just passed and I made this card for him since he can appreciate strange and curios things. I used Graphic 45’s “Old Curiosity Shoppe” paper collection and sticker sheets to create with. The key tied with twine is a Tim Holtz piece and I used Vintage Photo on all the edges. The Stamp is “Mice Party” by Clear Art Stamps and the die is a Spellbinders Nestability one I like to use with more simple and masculine themes.
